Announcing: "Suave"... by Authentique Paper
The quote says it all..."Life is extraordinarily suave and sweet." Our brand new collection, "Suave" is charming and adventurous with a hint of grunge. This is the story of a boy...and the story of a man!
The basis of our "Suave" collection is classic, both in pattern and color. Shades of blue, green, cream and black present a wide range of age and usability. We promise you, there is something for men of all ages and you will love creating with this range.
12 double sided papers, printed on our signature heavy-weight textured cardstock are named "Authentique-style," based on emotions felt as a boy, man, or when describing the man, whether big or small, in your life. Opposite the pattern side of the paper are distressed solids...this is where the "grunge" comes into play (a little dirt never hurt!)...a faint dot layer of texture creates movement and depth. Finally, pay extra attention to the paper names and you'll better understand the link between the name and design of the paper.

Towne store side design & midnight blue distressed solid

"Vigorous" 12x12 Paper- SUA021

"Foundation One" 12x12 Paper- SUA007
Antique cream / blue mini, mini dot
"Foundation Two" 12x12 Paper- SUA008

ReplyDeleteThe colors and patterns on this collection are FABulous! I love them so much! I have a house full of boys: hubby, son and puppy!!! :-) TFS!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this is perfect. So many of the prints remind me of the boxers that my dad and brother used to wear! Just teased my middle son, soon to be a father, that he has never been suave a day in his life. What a hoot that this showed up today!
ReplyDeleteWow, this collection is absolutely stunning! I can hardly wait till it hits the stores, so I can use it to scrap the men in my life.

ReplyDeleteHoly Cow...this could be my favorite collection of all time...absolutely love the range of colors!!! Changing my profile pic on FB just for you!
ReplyDeleteI'm in love! These blues are absolutely gorgeous and the patterns are fantastic. Since nearly all of my scrapping is about my 6yr old son, I can imagine lots and lots of pages using this line!!

I don't make many masculine pages, but I use lots of greens, blues and greys as background - so every page here is a hit)
ReplyDeleteWOnderful collection and name! This would be perfect for scrapping my 25 year old who is suave and sweet!
ReplyDeleteWON-DER-FUL! Must have this...
ReplyDeleteGreat collection! I love the paper with the fun mustache and spectacle design!!! These colors and designs would make some great guy cards!
ReplyDeleteI really do like this collection. I love the blue shift, as most papers are "vintage" and warm-shaded. This would work with most home decors and for more masculine applications, like father-and-son scrapbook pages and wallmountings. They would also fit in with other collections to brighten them up. I am just discovering the scrapbooking and album-making crafts and this would make a good first collection. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteNon-FBer here.....THANK you for always having your comment contests open to those of us who don't do FB!!! Much appreciate that!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful collection!! I love the colors.....great for guys, but also lovely for gals. I see a ton of versatility here. LOVE the vintage print images. Great job, Authentique!!!
